March 8, 2016 by tyler@dfwsurf.com

It is Tuesday, March 8th, also known as International Women’s Day where we celebrate the cultural, economic and political achievement of women throughout the world.  At DFW Surf we love our women!  Women make up nearly 65% of the active watersports paddleboarding and wakesurfing community in Texas and beyond.  Without your joy, excitement, commitment and determination we would not be where we are today.  Lets look back at some of our favorite women’s moments over the years:

1.  The Texas Paddle Racing Scene is new and exciting and Team DFW Surf women are leading the way in the competitive scene.  Andra Dunn and Konae Nowell are 2 of Texas Top Paddlers.
